Miss Grace Harpley is an Occupational Therapist (OT) based in Cardiff, NSW. She works from Suite 2 342-346 Main Road, Cardiff NSW 2285, and helps people make everyday life feel more manageable.
Occupational therapy is about the day-to-day stuff. That can mean getting through personal care, household tasks, and usual routines without feeling stuck or worn out. Grace focuses on what matters in real life, not just what looks good on paper. She helps people build practical steps they can use at home and work.
One big part of her work is assessment of daily living activities. This is where she looks at what you’re finding hard, how you move, and what gets in the way during normal routines. Sometimes it’s pain or stiffness. Other times it’s how your energy changes through the day. In many cases, small changes can make a noticeable difference.
Grace also supports people with customised home exercise programs. These aren’t generic plans. They’re made to fit the person’s goals and day-to-day setup. The aim is to help improve strength, movement, and confidence in using your body. She can also guide joint range of motion exercises, especially when mobility feels limited and it affects how you do tasks.
Work can be a tricky space when your body isn’t coping the way it used to. Grace offers workplace ergonomic assessments to help you and your employer think about safer, more comfortable setup. This can include looking at posture, reach, and how tasks are done, so work doesn’t keep pushing your symptoms in the wrong direction.
Over time, the plan can be adjusted as things change. That might mean revisiting what’s working, updating routines, or tightening up how exercises are done. The focus stays simple: help you get back to what you need and want to do, in a way that feels doable.
Grace’s work is grounded in practical support for everyday activity and movement. If you’re looking at how to manage daily living, improve joint movement, or make workstations more comfortable, she can help you take the next step.
